I have “ridden the lightning” by accident while helping a friend with a DIY home electrical project. Do not mess around with sparky work. If you are not professionally trained and educated, hire someone who is. Your life is worth it.
I was holding a ladder as my friend used a meter to test a cable. The blue-white flash I experienced was visible inside my body and behind my eyes while it was happening in slow motion. My entire body and lungs clinched; my hands flexed on the ladder until the test lead fell off. We were lucky and shocked to be alive.
Whether you live in Sydney, Hornsby, Baulkham Hills, or Liverpool electricians will save your life, home, and insurance, and give you insight into new technology to make living easier, more economical, and environmentally friendly.
- There are aspects of home automation that sound very interesting to me. If my refrigerator, coffee maker, and toaster oven can be wired to make me breakfast, sign me up. Ok, maybe we are not there yet, but 3d printing food is a reality.
- A central hub can be accessed from your phone while at work, or on holiday. Any connected and “intelligent” devices can be accessed and controlled.
- Incorporating a smart security system will give you access to security cameras, microphones, and a speaker to have live voice communication on your property.
- The term “Smart Home” describes a home where appliances and equipment are remotely accessible, and has automation and integrated security systems.
Professional electricians provide peace of mind with electrical safety.
- They will accurately troubleshoot problems and save your coin on useless parts.
- Many people fail when using improper cable type or size, causing resistance variations, heat, and possible fires. A sparky will know better.
- A tradie has a kitted-out ute canopy with heaps of specialty testing and system maintenance tooling you do not possess.
- They can interpret blueprints and schematics to locate junctions without bashing holes in walls like whack-a-mole.
- Your local tradesman has a career of connections and relationships in the industry to locate parts and materials faster and for less.
- Increase your home value, and security with properly installed exterior lighting in various controllable zones, or light up your entire property simultaneously.
NSW has online resources to help qualify any tradie you hire. They should have quality training and receive continuing education in the ever-changing field. They should be certified by recognized industry bodies in your state or territory. They should be insured to protect them, their workmanship, you, your family, and your property.
The current workforce is underdeveloped. If you are looking for a great paying job, that will only grow, and provide a lifetime of employment, become an electrician.
Electricians can light up our lives and restore our power during the darkest times. They are grounded, their humour can be shocking, and you can identify their skill by how burnt their eyebrows are.
Find an electrician near you before an emergency strikes. Stay plugged into new technology that results in better environmental responsibility and performance.
